U.S's Porter Robinson and U.K's Mat Zo make up a great combination, whether it's touring together or collaborating on a tune. The latter is the case right now – the extended mix of 'Easy' has been made commercially available through Beatport. It got the fans buzzing after it was first played on Above & Beyond's second Group Therapy Session. A real Christmas treat for EDM fans, this one's got it all – trancey vocals, huge hooks, catchy synths – a progressive house track for the dance-floors. Enjoy!
There isn't that many good techno remixes of metal out there. Germany, though, is the land where both of these music styles prevail. So it is really cool to hear that Boys Noize has remixed fellow compatriots Rammstein. 'Mein Herz Brennt' has received a fundamental hard hitting techno remake while preserving its original power. Does this light a fire in your hearts as well (Mein Herz Brennt translates to My Heart Burns)? Well, I can guarantee this will light a fire in you, although the fire won't be jolly like your fireplace at Christmas.
